All of my Notes have been deleted. "answers" online do not help

All of my Notes were deleted because they were in Mail. They were deleted off mail inbox, then iCloud sync deleted off my iphone. No longer in trash. I use time machine. I don't have a CONTAINERS folder in library. please help. I can not locate the Notes in my TM (or in Finder).

Most likely you have launched iPhoto with the External hard drive not available and it has created a new library that contains only your recent photos -- launch iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key and point to your library on the external hard drive
You probably will have to move the "new" library to the desktop and merge it with your old library using iPhoto library manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/
To find the "new" library quit iPhoto and in the finder go menu ==> go to folder /volumes and drag the "new" iPhoto library to the desktop so you can access it

I just Synced My iPhone 6 which had close to 2000 photos to a new computer (windows PC) and synced with iTunes.Now all my previous photos have been deleted which were there on my phone. Please suggest a way to recover those Photos . Thanks
P.S -I have not taken any backup of those photos. So please suggest any software or any other method.

If those photos were part of the camera roll, they were part of the backup as well and you can restore from the latest backup you made on the old computer. After that transfer the photos to the new PC, follow this article: iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Then sync again to the new one, which will erase the phone again.
You can also try to copy the backup folder from the old computer to the new one and see if the old backups get recognized, check this article to find the location on your PC:
Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
If the photos were not taken with the phone, your data is gone, photos you sync from iTunes to the phone are not included in the backup.

Hi, Farticus10.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

All my notes have been deleted and I can't get them back

M-My notes had doubled so. Deleted the doubled up notes when I went on the app late they had all dissapeared my phine and ipad have since synced with icloud again is thee anyway of retrieving them I am desperate

You probably deleted them yourself and they weren't actually doubled. If you have a recent backup, restore that backup (you may want to get any pictures off the phone since the backup) to see if your notes are contained in the backup.

My notes have been deleted! Help.

Ok i'm quite frustrated with this issue now.
A couple of weeks ago my iPhone 4S thought it would be a good idea to wipe all of my phone contacts. After some playing around I just turned the iCloud off and then on again and cosequently everyone's phone number in my contacts returned.
Now yesterdsy as I backed out from a note I had just typed up in the notes app obviously, my iPhone thought it would be a good idea to wipe this month's entire history of notes I had written out so essntially i've lost all notes in May. I dd the same again, turn off ICloud and turn back on again but it didn't work. I did all the little things like turn the whole device off, nothing worked. Yesterday was the 17th May.
Now I saw that I had manually backed up my IPhone to a computer on the 11th May so 6 days prior, so I decided to erase all content from phone and restore from there assuming my notes would return, albeit, being behind everywhere else by 6 days. However I was shocked to find my notes had not returned. I then frantically tried to restore back to yesterday's restore point but realised there wasn't a period for this. However, the ICloud had automatically backed up my data on the 16th May so the day before yesterday and when I realised that was the case, I restored to there but despite getting most back of what I had lost over that 6 day period, my notes written in May were STILL nowhere to be seen.
Now I have notes set to back up with the ICloud on my IPhone but all of my notes in May seem to have been mysteriously deleted and I cannot retrieve them again. What do I do now and why has this happened? I'm extremely frustrated and need answers ASAP.
Thank you.

Now your notes are setup to backup to icloud, but if you go to icloud.com and sign in and do not see your notes it may mean that "before" your notes were backed up somewhere else or perhaps nowhere. Go to notes app and click accounts under notes and find out what accounts you have. Check all those by logging in their respective servers.
Yahoo.com for yahoo, gmail.com for google. If you see group "on my iphone" - those are not synced up separately, but there is a way to retrieve those from backup by using instruction here

You may need to change word notes when in article it says contacts and item number 9 may not work as successfully as with contacts, but at least you will see if notes are in the itunes backup.

All of my contacts have been deleted can you help me fix it?

I haven't done anything to my iPhone but it somehow deleted all of my contact! I need you help you my only chance!?

What sort of visa card is it, debit or credit ? Debit cards don't appear to still be accepted in all countries (and even where they are it seems that not all are accepted).
For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined (but you might not be able to use a debit card) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
Do you have a different card that you could try, or are iTunes gift cards available in your country (they are not available in all and they are country-specific, they can only be used in their country of issue) ? If gift cards are available then you could potentially use them as your payment method.

My bookmark toolbar is there, but all of the bookmarks have been deleted. Even if I re-add them, they are gone if I open a new window.

When I opened up Firefox today my bookmark toolbar was completely blank. The toolbar is still there, but all the bookmarks are gone. Since I only use it for the sites I visit everyday, I just re-added them in hopes that they would stay. However when I opened up a new window they were gone again. If I open up the bookmark toolbar on the side of the screen, it will have all the pages I have attempted to have stay on the toolbar itself.

A couple of articles that may help, as your issue seen specific to the toolbar see [[Toolbar keeps resetting]]. For other possible causes see the[[Bookmarks not saved]] article.

All of my photos have been deleted off of iPhoto

I have lost all of my photos on iphoto

Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

HT5070 i recently had a friend update my windows and the most important part of my laptop is my ITunes & when i went on ITunes all of my songs have been deleted there has to be a way to get them back in my library? what do i do to get them back? I paid i

aI paid a small fortune to have a very big Music Library and all of my songs are gone? How do i get them back? There has to be some way to have over 2000 + songs put back into my own Library how do i do that?

What exactly did your friend do ? Did you or he take a backup of your iTunes library before updating your computer ? Have you checked to see if your music is still on your computer ? By default your iTunes library is stored under :
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes
Windows 7 and Windows 8: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes
If it's there then you can add it to your iTunes library via File > Add To Library.
If not then do you have a copy of your library on a backup ? If you do then use File > Add To Library to add it back.
If you haven't got a backup then you might, depending upon what country that you are in and if the music is still in your country's store, be able to redownload your iTunes purchases via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage.

All my posts have been deleted!

I have been active on the discussions forum since a few years.
Now, for some reason, all my previous posts have been deleted (except for the ones that I placed today).
I wonder why.

Thanks for these thoughts!
My name is Jean-René Bibeau. Therefore, an "e" with an acute accent.
I also indicate in my profile that I am in Québec city... (an other "e" with an acute accent).
I have been using this identification since years.
About Safari 4 (that I have installed and uninstalled - see my other recent post), as you suggest, it may well be the case that all my posts were erased when I installed it. I can't confirm this, but the coincidence is revealing.
This is puzzling for me that Safari would cause all this, but then I'm no expert in that matter.
And also, you make me think of it. A few months ago, when I updated Safari (I can't remember from which version to which version), I couldn't login to Apple Discussions anymore with Safari. At the time, strangely, I succeeded login only through using Firefox. And, in fact, one of my last posts concerned that issue. Eventually, for some reasons, things came back to normal and I could login to Apple Discussions with Safari 3.2.1.

Hardware changes might not have been detected

Hello,
I am getting the error message "hardware changes might not have been detected" for five days now. Using HP Pavillion g6Notebook PC/Product No. : D8Q59EA#ABF running OS Windows 8 (not wanting to upgrade to 8.1)
After Windows automatic security and KB updates, and HP update, five days ago I started having error messages when trying to watch videos online. Video would start and five seconds in 'black-out' with error message 'unable to play video' imbeded in video itself. I then noticed sound abscence on my laptop and noted that although all sound controls are at proper settings, there is no sound. Device manager is showing NO exclaimation marks or warnings. HP Action center is saying 'no issues' and Control Panel automated fix tools are all coming back as 'unable to fix problem', OR, when running troubleshooter in CP for hardware and devices getting the "hardware changes might not have been detected message". I have tried using a restoration point to before issues began, which temporarily fixes the sound issue but it then goes off again. Same with 'HP recovery' option for 'drivers', temporary fix that does not remain. Tried 'system restore' from a restoration point just done where sound WAS working but even that, once done, quickly lost the sound. Tried Microsoft onliine auto fix tools and they too are unable to fix the problem. Windows updates all up to date, no 'optional updates' available other than Bing Desktop and Microsoft Silverlight, both of which I do not want or need. Drivers all up to date it appears, including with HP Updates. Intuitively it feels as if the drivers are up to date, recognized and functioning, but then 'something' is 'disconnecting' their recognition/functioning, IF it is in fact even a driver issue. I have been reading for several days and narrowed it down to that. Seen a few articles re the EXACT same problem referenced on an OS Windows 7, but not ONE where a solution that fixes the problem exist! Thank you in advance for your help and please advise if further details are required. I have added no new hardware recently, or ever, in fact to my laptop, only Kaspersky Pure MANY months ago and it is working perfectly without conflicts. Thanks again.

Hi RedmoonWolf,
Bit of a puzzler of an issue for sure. And you're right, there's very little out there in terms of similar error messages, and how to fix them.
I would consider going to the Windows Update window, and noting which ones went through lately. Then, another place to start first might be to go back to that same restore point again, and this time halting the automatic updates.
Once that is stable again, try updating any browsers you use, and also Adobe flash, as a lot of videos work off of that.
Secondly, before doing any more updates, go ahead and run the system file checker - might be something that it'll catch and fix: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
Finally, if all is going alright, create another restore point, and then try the updates again, hopefully this time around they'll work
